Ed, ADVOCATE; Some individual without a
name writes to the Sunday call as follows:
cit Is about time to talk about the spring
elocttons Who are going TO be candidates? We
want good schOul directors. a good supervisor
ana above all better assessor than the present

Now Mr.. Editor, so far as the duties OF the
school directors and supervisor are concerned
have nothing to say, but MS to the assessor do
claim that the duties have been done in n fair
and impartial manner. as the law, directs the
duties should be done; ard in nyyislts through

make personal complaints of their assessment.
Hence, am satisfied that about the only "growl-
err on this subject is the nameless Packerton

than to 'gTowl" over the work done by officers

Topics Discussed Over The River"

AT New Haven, Conn, on Saturday,
Judge Pickett rendered decision in the
case of the Superintendent of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad
who was accused of conspiracy by one
Thomas Meany, who charged him with
'blackisting' him. The party, accused
was fined 500. The Judge, in his decis
ion, said that he was clearly of the opinion
that conspiracy designed to hinder any
man flom putting his labor on the market,
when, where and for such compensation ps
he may agree for, is equally criminal with
any conspiracy designed to hinder the sale
of the merchandise of any producer or deal
er, and is more disastrous in effect than
any other form Of conspiracy, except that
TO take life. To convict Of such conspiracy,
circumstantial evidence Is competent and
may be conclusive. II Is sufficient If it Is
| shown that the parties had a mutual un-
derstanding 10 the common design and the
part each was to perform in the attainment
thereof. The Court is satisfied that Wal
lace and Opdyke had a mutual understand
ing that a man not approved by one should
not be employed by the other. This was
20 all intents and purposes a boycott upon
the individuals" This should settle the
illegallty of the boycott and blacklist, and
parties who resort to This method as
means whereby labor or industry must fall
in to their desires are open to prosecution
and fine Tho rendition Of tla oboya do
cision by an able and popular jurist renders
future action on these matters important
and necessary where attempts are made
either by manufacturers or organizations to
coerce individuals into contracts of labor
which are in many cases distasteful.

The communication which appeared in
the CARBON ADVOCATE several weeks ago
regarding the County Superintendency of
Schools has been the source of considerable
comment among our prominent citizens of
late. The connection of Horace ID. Heydt' s
maine as probable candidate for the posi-
tion has caused very noticeable ripple of
excitement in several quarters. Mr.. Heydt
is recognized here as a promising young
lawyer, and having had the advantage of
a superior education would be in every re-
spect qualified TO ill the position with credit
to himself andthe county generally. Judg-
ing from the tenor of the communication
which recently appeared in these columns,
one is led to believe that the present in
cumbent will not be candidate for re-
election-whether he will or not we are
unable to say. The election of County
Superintendent of Schools should not be
matter of political favor or political preju-
dice, but of fair, impartial action by the
school directors of the county. If Mr..
Heydt is deemed more worthy and intelli-
gent, more capable and consistent than the
present County Superintendent, it behooves
the proper authorities to elect him in pref
crance tothe'person now holding that Office.
The election of County Superintendent
takes place some time during the month of
May, and no doubt the question win be
fully, ably and satisfactorily discussed be-
tween now and then, and the result will be
the election Of him, who is deemed most
capable and worthy for that position.

The following subscriptions for the CARBON
ADVOCATE have been received since our last
report:
The Carbon advocate. [volume] (Lehighton, Pa.) 1872-1924, 1887-01-15

We were informed recently that in the
course of year or two the large and com
modious school hall, now used for school
entertainments, &C., will be- partitioned
off into school rooms. This is an evidence
that our population is on the increase; and
the question now presents itself how long
will the S45,0O0 building accommodate the
growing population of Lehighton? Speak
ing of the amount expended on the struc-
ture now used as a school building brings
to mind, in a manner, the expensive habits
of the school directors of the long ago.
That the erection of the school building on
the hill was an unwise piece of business be-
comes more forcibly apparent every year as
the repairs become more frequent. There
is still debt of some S23, GOO on the. build
ing, and long before that amount dwindes
down into lesser figures an additional debt
for new school building will be upon us.
So moNe es the world along.

OUR MAN ABOUT TOWN.
The Things our People Find Time to Talk
About from Day to Day.

The result of icy pavements have been
made doubly apparent this week II we are
to judge by the number of falls occasioned
therefrom. Along both sides of Bank
street, Lehigh street and Northampton
street, the pavements, with but few ex-
ceDtions, are covered with snow and ice,
which renders trayel actually dangerous.
The MAN About Town would kindly
advise the residents along the different
streets TO sprinkle icy pavements with
ashes or saw dust, and would, also, gently
remind the town council of the fact that in
case man, woman or child falls ard sus-
tains a broken limb or an injury of any
nature that the borough of Lehighton is
liable for damages. Considering this fact
it behooves the gentlemen composing the
council 10 take prompt action in the matter
by empowering the supervisor to clean all
pavements within limited time after every
snow fall adjusting the costs incurred there
Dy upon the resident whose pavement has
been cleaned.
